Serikali ya Kenya inachunguza raia wa Urusi juu ya video za kuwinda wanawake

Serikali ya Kenya imezindua uchunguzi wa pamoja dhidi ya raia wa Urusi anayedaiwa kurekodi video za siri za mahusiano na wanawake wa Kenya bila ridhaa yao, baada ya video hizo kuenea mtandaoni wiki iliyopita. Waziri wa Jinsia, Utamaduni na Huduma kwa Watoto, Hanna Wendot Cheptumo, amelaani kitendo hicho na kuwahamasisha waathirika kutafuta msaada kupitia nambari 1195. Uchunguzi unahusisha ushirikiano wa kimataifa kutafuta haki chini ya sheria za nchi.

Wiki iliyopita, video nyingi zilienea mitandaoni zikionyesha raia wa Urusi akizungumza na wanawake wa Kenya katika maeneo mbalimbali, ikiwa ni pamoja na kanisani, na kuwahamasisha kwenda naye. Katika video hizo, mwanamume huyo anawasimamia wanawake na kuwalazimisha kufuatana naye, ingawa haijulikani kilichotokea baadaye, na baadhi ya waathirika wameshaelezea akaunti zao tofauti.

Kwa tarehe 16 Februari 2026, Wizara ya Jinsia, Utamaduni na Huduma kwa Watoto ilitoa taarifa ikilaani "tukio la kusumbua" ambapo raia wa kigeni alirekodi na kusambaza picha za karibu za wanawake wa Kenya bila ridhaa yao. Waziri Hanna Wendot Cheptumo alisema kuwa kurekodi bila ridhaa ni uvunjaji wa heshima ya kibinafsi na faragha iliyohakikishwa katika katiba.

Taarifa ya wizara ilisema: "Wizara ya Jinsia, Utamaduni na Huduma kwa Watoto inalaani kwa nguvu tukio la kusumbua..." na kuongeza kuwa serikali inaandaa "jibu la serikali nzima" kwa kushirikiana na mashirika ya usalama, uchunguzi na ukuaji.

Ripoti zisizothibitishwa zinasema mwanamume huyo anaweza kutumia glasi za akili kama Ray-Ban Meta kurekodi bila kujulikana. Vitendo hivyo havijazuii Kenya pekee; serikali za Ghana na Nigeria zimesikia malalamiko sawa na zimeagiza uchunguzi.

Waziri Wendot ametahadharisha dhidi ya kusambaza video hizo ili kuepuka madhara ya kisaikolojia kwa waathirika, na kusisitiza sera za ulinzi wa mtandaoni dhidi ya unyanyasaji wa kidijitali. Uchunguzi unaendeshwa kwa haraka, ukihusisha ushirikiano wa kimataifa, na mshukiwa yeyote atakabiliwa na sheria za Kanuni ya Adhabu, Sheria ya Matumizi Mabaya ya Kompyuta na Makosa ya Mitandaoni, na sheria zingine zinazolinda wanawake na watoto.

The intimidation has prompted some providers and advocates to bolster security and has helped fuel renewed political calls for increased oversight of subsidized child care.
